Iwebema has tumor removed: A benign, baseball-size tumor has been removed from the chest of Arizona Cardinals defensive end Kenny Iwebema. Coach Ken Whisenhunt says the surgery was performed on Monday. The tumor was discovered during routine X-rays on April 30, the day before the start of minicamp. Iwebema showed no symptoms and that the condition could have been life-threatening had it gone undetected, Whisenhunt said after the team's voluntary workout on Wednesday. Iwebema, a fourth-round draft pick out of Iowa in 2008, can begin some rehabilitation work in two to three weeks but isn't expected to resume football activity for six to eight weeks. Doctors were able to use a minimally invasive laparoscopic procedure to remove the tumor through Iwebema's side. "It was very close," Whisenhunt said. "Had it (the tumor) been a little bit bigger, they would have had to crack his chest, which would have put him out for the year."

Fantasy Analysis

Iwebema doesn't produce enough stats on a weekly basis to warrant use in Fantasy play, but we can imagine how relieved he must feel to have this tumor out of his body. We wish him well in his recovery from the surgery.

DE Kenny Iwebema expects to be ready for training camp after undergoing surgery to remove a benign tumor in his chest last month. Iwebema should be able to start running soon and he can't wait. He's going stir crazy at home and has been through his DVD collection twice. "And I've got a lot of them," he said. 64//2009
